Please bring back the old way of reopening closed tabs. The new way is harder to use, and also, extremely buggy. If I have multiple browser windows each with multiple tabs and then close them, the behaviour is sporadic and I can't always recover my old tabs. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I keep an App version of Gmail up and if I close windows, sometimes I open a new Chrome and it brings up the old windows (instead of the launch page like it should). Sometimes I can restore the old tabs, and sometimes I can't. The old way was much better and more reliable. Going from 8 frequent pages to 4 is also a big loss. This happened a few months ago, and then went back. Please bring the old way back again or I might have to defect from the dev branch!

I agree with the above comments that the ability to re-open more than just the last closed tab was far better.

The old NTP was more powerful, so I hope we are (naturally) seeing a work-in-progress in the dev channel.

I noticed that all extension popups seem to be full-sized. They never shrink. This is noticeable on the Text tab in the Google Voice extension and the Neater Bookmarks extension, if the bookmarks tree is small.
